BJP issues showcause notice to MP Ramesh Bidhuri for anti-Muslim slurs in Lok Sabha
BSP MP Danish Ali said that when this is the condition of an elected member like him then what will be the condition of a common people.
The Bharatiya Janata Party has issued a showcause notice to Party MP Ramesh Bidhuri for anti-Muslim slurs against his Parliament colleague Danish Ali of the BSP. According to reports, the showcause has been issued on the instruction of party president J P Nadda. Earlier, Lok Sabha speaker Om Birla warned Ramesh Bidhuri of strict action if such behaviour repeats.
During the discussion of Chandrayaan 3 success, Bidhuri’s remarks calling his parliament colleague a terrorist, militant etc triggered an uproar in the House with opposition leaders demanding strong action against him. Reportedly, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh apologised for Bidhuri’s behaviour.
Speaking on Bidhuri’s remarks, BSP MP Danish Ali said that when this is the condition of an elected member like him then what will be the condition of a common people. He added that he hopes that he will get justice and the Speaker will conduct an enquiry or else he will leave the Parliament with a heavy heart as this can not be tolerated.
He added that the party did not only insult him and his followers but also insulted the whole nation. He expressed that he will now see if the BJP is taking any action against Bidhuri or if he will be promoted and included in the central cabinet of ministers, adding that maybe it has become a competition among BJP leaders to make such statements not just outside but even inside Parliament.
On the other hand, Congress on Friday took strong objections to Bidhuri’s remarks in the Lok Sabha and demanded his suspension from the House. Terming the remarks as an insult to all MPs, Congress MP Jairam Ramesh said the apology offered by Union minister Rajnath Singh was a mere eyewash and not sufficient. He further demanded strict action against Bidhuri. RJD MP Manoj Jha also expressed that he was saddened, but not surprised. He added that this is the truth of PM’s Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam.
